Programing side view mirrors-QX60

Nope. I know, it sucks they didn't incorporate that into it considering how simple of a thing it would have been.

There is a button about a half foot from your left leg that does it, but it cannot be done automatically.

hopefully it's something that they decide to include in some future year model
being so simple to add yet something we value is worth it for them and us.

Another 1st world problem.

wife would like to have the feature...

What annoys me more is the stupidity of how the current switch works. Went can't they have two switches: one for in, one for out and you simply push the one you want? That's how my previous truck did it and it makes sense. This three position thing is silly.

And most definitely a first world problem to the max!

At first glance, I thought the middle position on the switch was for auto mode. Unfortunately that's not the case.

If they made them fold in automatically then how would they update the mirrors to be even better on the next-generation model? I'm convinced there are plenty of extra little things they can do each time, but they save them up and release them strategically so that they always have something new up their sleeve.

you would've thought that would be the case.

It technically does have a switch for both in and out. To the left is in, and to the right is out again. The middle is a place for the switch to rest so it is not in or out.

I think you're missing the point that it should be automatic.

^ yup.

Too bad they couldn't just update the logic for the center position of the switch through an update and have it act as automatic. If you don't want automatic, just leave the switch in the 'open' position.

I completely understand, just answering the fact that it does have two different switches for open and close.

Totally. It's also stupid that you can leave the mirrors closed during driving.

Very true, but lets hope no one actually does this!

Funny how that works. That should be a safety concern. Just as bad as not checking you blind spots.

The circuit for them could have just been linked to the same speed sensor that is used by the nav. If the car is in motion above a certain speed they won't close. But they do need to give the option to close them at low speeds for some people while in motion such as passing double parked vehicles or garbage trucks on narrow Brooklyn streets.
